Angels

The Hosts of Heaven

They are all around us.

Divine creations of the Lord our G-d. 

Who excel in strength, who do His word, heeding the voice of His word. (says the psalmist)

Ministers of His, who do His pleasure. (Taken from Psalm 103)

They are also given us as support.

Psalm  91 tells us in verse 11

"For God commands the angels to guard you in all your ways.

With their hands they shall support you, lest you strike your foot against a stone.”

The Lord has seen fit to have His angels serve us…(all who fear G-d)

The Psalmist  tells us in Psalm 34

"The angel of the LORD, encamps with them, to deliver the one who fears the Lord."

  

I for one am so very thankful for this ministry of G-d's angels.

Especially today!

I do not worship, nor do I seek out angels but after what happened today I am especially thankful that they are very much a part of my life!

I was almost killed three times today!

I was driving along the interstate, minding my own bussiness. I was in the far right lane. A semi in the left lane next to me and suddenly a car parked on the should of the highway decides to pull onto the interstate. No turn signal. No nothing. I couldn't slow down. I couldn't pull into the left lane (because of the semi truck.) I laid on my horn for a solid 20 seconds. (I have a very loud horn) and I moved as far over in my lane as I possibly could. The truck driver swerved over to his left as much as HE COULD. (good thing HE was paying attention. The car that pulled onto the interstate seemed totally oblivious!

I though for a moment in time I was going to be smashed between the car and the truck!

I have no explanation for not being seriously injured or crushed to death!

Seriously - other than G-d's angels looking out for me.

This was only ONE of three times today!

I think someone is out to get me.

Thank you Lord - You have other plans!

Below are some pictures that people have painted from their own ideas of what their angels would look like.

I have my own idea of what MY guardian looks like.

I am not quite as talented as the following artists so these photos will have to do.

They are all awesome pictures....but honestly?

I am quite certain they do NOT do the mighty warriors of our Holy G-d justice.

Enjoy.
